Leonardtown Art Walk
Annual Arts & Entertainment Celebration
The St. Mary’s County Arts Council and the Town of Leonardtown hosts an annual Art Walk in September. This event celebrates the Leonardtown’s Arts & Entertainment District designation.
Each year our local artists are encouraged to submit artwork to be displayed in all of the businesses around Leonardtown. Our Art Walk contest is an exciting opportunity to view artwork created locally in a wide variety of media and styles with generous prizes awarded to the winners!
Stop by any of the businesses featured on the map in September, pick up a ballot, get the ballot stamped at three different locations, and select your three favorite pieces of art! You can select the art from ANY of the businesses as long as you visit at least three different locations for your ballot to be stamped.
